Transcript of negotiations:
Kidnapper: Give us Hassoun's head on a plate, we will return the "pilgrims"
Charbel: You know we cant do that. Hassoun is the one who decides who lives and who dies. He kills. He is not the killed!!!
Kidnapper: HA killed loads of syrian liberation army officers, At least give me a smaller fry, such as Raad, Fneich. one of the HA big thugs. we will return the "pilgrims".
Charbel: Cant do that. Despite all, we are a state of law. Unlike Syria.
Kidnapper: I hate HA's arrogance.
Charbel: we all do. but what can we do? they have weapons and think they represent God himself. Yalla I have to go to dinner now. we will talk again later.
Kidnappers: ok. yalla bye.

The events as the unfolded: 1) Protests started in Syria because of ASSad's brutality. 2) The Hezz sent killers to Syria to kill innocent civilians. 3) The Hezz got some thug trained "pilgrims" taken hostage while traveling through a war zone by bus. 4) Yet again the Hezz ask the Lebanese gov't to clean up their mess.

The same thing happened in 2006, and with many other messes created by the hezz.
